What kind of mounting post do you use and how tall should it be

These are most often mounted on a building wall. They should be mounted out of easy reach but no more than 12 or 15 feet high. With antennas attached as pictured coverage is virtually omnidirectional.

I mounted mine on a wall about 12' off the ground and it covered 2 four story buildings on a 100'x120' lot.

I have two units. One I use on my motorhome to extend/improve a camp grounds (often poor) WiFi coverage. I have a ~12' aluminum flagpole mounted to the rear ladder via a 'Flag Pole Buddy' mount (super easy on/off). The Hawking Technology unit is usually at about 15' height, a few feet above the motorhome. Another I have on a workshop on the rear of my property to provide WiFi there via an access point in the house. This one is mounted about 10' above the ground - communicating to an access point on the ground floor of the house.

Any type of mounting system will work. The unit needs to be tall enough for reduced obstructions. I have mine mounted on the top of my camper.

Sorry for the delay response,, but I purchased after market mounts so I am not sure on the mounts you will be using.

If you use the post holes, you will have 1 1/2"-1 3/4" inches depending which row of holes you use. If you need to hang them, you will have 2 inches.

without a ruler handy I would say between 5 and 5.5 inches tall from mounting surface

Thanks for the answer but I was looking for the exact distance in between the mounted brackets length wise. I would anticipate it to be around 8 feet or so.

Do a search on amazon for arb lightbar bracket. It's a hundred bucks and mount well to the a post using existing bolts

I bought a 2" pvc pipe and it was slightly too big so we went and got 1 inch and 1/2 and it works perfectly, I dunno what josh is talking about with the 3" answer...Also the pole I use is about 6 feet tall, it's pvc and with a 3x5 foot flag it gets just the right amount of "sway" for me, you could use wood or steel to not have any play in it but I like the "leaning back" look :) The hitch itself is super solid and could hold steel no problem, hope that helps!

I have it mounted at an angle, but don't have it at the top of the stairs. I think the post would need to be 2.25 at least. Otherwise it has been good for an irregular area of the house.

I have used the 12 foot horizontal galvanized posts that you would use for a chain link fence (2), they are cheaper than the "antenna mounts". I used a post hole digger to bury the bottom down 18" or so, concrete optional, and braced near the top of the house. I have a ranch house, so you may need to adjust for a taller structure.

Hi, For this type of installation, you will want a Lanai Jamb Bracket. These are also sometimes called a "Florida style jamb bracket". They are designed to be installed on a post. Hope this helps.

Well, width you will measure across boat where you plan on mounting it. Height, go up from those same points to see how tall you want it. I like to be able to stand without ducking under it. Think those are your only two choices of measurements.

The Post-Mount style fixture as shown is 20" high:http://www.gamasonic.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/GS-106PWF.pdf

That will depend on the mount you select, just make sure that it is at least that tall.

It comes with the standard mounting base or you can purchase a taller one....This thing is worth every penny....

What size is the post that goes into the base. If it is 1/2 inch I would be able to use it with a universal wall bracket that I have. Thank you, Lewis

what is the height not counting the mount? Not sure if I want to use mount or not.
